Either you are a troll or Rooney is the one feeding your family

People are defending Pogba here, is he feeding their families? After all Rooney has been better than Pogba.

Nothing wrong with the stats. If you profile Pogba you would end up with same stats.

On your poll. I don't trust it. The admin came up with the that. The only Poll I can trust is the one conducted here by you, and Rooney won.


Ayagayayagayo hei Ayagayayagayo

Elampiro sha! The Poll ends at 11:59pm tonight, hence Rooney has won nothing!

Mourinho is also his cousin. Herrera who said Rooney is still very good is his cousin.

Rooney should be blamed for Pogba's poor outing so far even though Rooney was not against Feyenoord? And now it pains you that someone is able to identity the fact that Pogba flopped without Fellaini and Rooney - the usual scapegoats.

So far, Pogba is a flop. At least Rooney has been better than Pogba.


Mtcheew...Your Mourinho with Back to Back defeats...Or the Herrera chopping bench and asslicking his captain?


Yes, Pogba is a flop but what's my business? Bench Rooney is all we want.


Put Mata or Miki in the NO 10; Pogba can sit in the bench for all I care, I just don't want to see fatso on the field

Yes Pogba has been shit also but he is still adapting to the league. Rooney on the other hand has been shit for years. Remember one of them cost 89m if you were a manager who would you bench

No dey spam this thread with anti-Rooney posts. We have already agreed that he can be dropped. He doesn't justify his starting place anymore. I welcome changes that can move us forward. Let everyone fight for his place.

Let’s watch how we move from here. No one should have immunity. Anyone who makes us play better should be selected.

There were two players who went to help Shaw. It was two vs two without Shaw. Shaw's immediate concern should have been to stop the guy who was coming to score.

So if you are a player, someone wants to score, and you are closest, you say you stop to mark the one not handling you immediate danger?
Baba you're saying nonsense just to make a point for Rooney. You practically have nothing against Rooney for standing and ball watching in that situation. Even the opponents number 15 behind Rooney is moving whereas Rooney is just standing and ball watching. There was a time Rooney would have gone in, make the tackle, get the ball, start a counter and finish it with a goal all in 22secs. That was when Rooney still had it him. I'm afraid that's the Rooney you still have in your imagination till today.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elrony(m): 4:23pm On Sep 20, 2016
The squad being paraded of recent really lacks team Chemistry,the cohesion and combination play is sub par.

Mourinho has a lot of work to do,especially in squad selection and tactical tinkering.

The players need to work on themselves (their form and individual prowess) and stop playing like disemboweled entities without life force and determination.

I don tire to dey blame some players,it's obvious that nothing much can come from them.

Pogba that bounces on the pitch like a ping-pong tossed casualy on a Woden board should step up his game? I've never seen a defensive/holding mildfielder waiting for the ball to get to him rather than going for the ball like I've seen in our £89mil asset. I've seen him shoot like 6 times, and all was balooned over the bar, except the Watford shot that rattled the woodwork.
The good thing is that he can improve if he wishes to

I wish Rooney well,he should get his goals and get outta the Starting line up(and perhaps the club)!!
He's paid his dues,shouldn't be among those dragging the team down!

You have looked at the picture upside down. Rooney has no business with Zunga. Shaw had two men moved into his position, he needed to cover that space but he didn't. Go and watch the highlight.

Watch the video video. Just 7mb
It showed it from various angles, Rooney kept an eye on his man, it was only when he saw that the situation had become hopeless that he stopped. If Shaw had kept running, Zunga wouldn't have scored.



Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by atebesunny: 5:44pm On Sep 20, 2016
I strongly believe one of the problems of MAN UTD is the issue of waiting/standing-still to receive a pass instead of running into space or creating it to receive the pass. this tends to make their play slow and easy to negate (no fluidity ).
example of this is the match against city where everyone (including myself )concluded that Mikki flopped, he's used to players who pass and run into space (Dortmund and FC Shakhtar play fluid football ). another case is when Mata came on against Watford and lost possessions cos he was passing into space for his teammates, and I 'think' this might be affecting Pogba cos he's also used to fluid midfield play

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by atebesunny: 5:53pm On Sep 20, 2016
To curb this issue (my previous post ) Mou needs to Play an orchestrator/playmaker who has an eye for pass (quick pass) and space (Carrick, shwenni or Herrera can do the job for the time being ) #my opinion
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 5:57pm On Sep 20, 2016
Watford took a freekick, Rooney went to mark. Luke Shaw distance from the his man meant Rooney was comfortably passed around.

Rooney still kept a eye on his man. Luke Shaw's man passed the ball to another who dragged Pogba out of position. Fellaini sensed the danger and went to cover, but Luke Shaw didn't go to cover the vacuum left by Fellaini. That was the fault.

UniqueGem, stop looking at malicious publications made by Liverpool fans to dicsredit Rooney.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 6:05pm On Sep 20, 2016

Pogba is also at fault for this goal. The guy who gave the Assist escaped from Pogba. Pogba was marking empty space while pointing to Fellaini to mark two men.



But the English press managed to put it on Rooney who carefully watched his man. All the the name to make big Sam drop him for Herdenson.

A player that was striking only to be pushed here and there so as to accommodate him don't you think people are just tolerating him?

May be they were also tolerating Scholes when he was moved from number 10 to the midfield, then to the wing.

that goal was Shaw's fault though, even mourinho pinned the blame on him, i don't know where dis Rooney theory is emanating from.

Elamps, Pogba is the main man at fault for that second goal. He lost his man. Although Shaw was sluggish, he should't bear the brunt. Rooney is blameless. Pogba is the main culprit. He watched as his marker escaped him.
